The cover picture shows an apple snail ( Pomacea bridgesi ) and scanning electron micrographs of five different forms of calcium carbonate that were prepared in vitro (vaterite, calcite, monohydrocalcite, amorphous calcium carbonate, and aragonite). Details are discussed in the article by M. Neumann and M. Epple on p. 1953 ff.
